Nilin

Series: Remember Me
Character:  Nilin 
Debuted At:  Anime Expo 2013
Details: 
Capcom's new game Remember Me, wooed us with its amazing gameplay mechanics, story concepts, and deeply beautiful aesthetic, environments and character design. So naturally, we fell in love with Nilin. 

Nilin's jacket was made from scratch completely, with remains of an old skiing jacket. It was tailored to fit, cropped, with black bias tape added, zippers added, and lined with orange leather. Her shirt was bought and altered, and jean leggings were bought and painted over to look weathered. Her armored legs were made from stretch vinyl, foam core and craft foam to look like they were plated. The orange, white and red lines were all painted on. 

Her glove was made similarly. With a satin base, I added craft foam armor on top, and slid an EL ribbon into slots made in the craft foam. The El wire is charged by a battery pack. I also made a detachable arrangment of frosted acetate for her 'Overload' effect. A sensen was made from craft foam and acetate as well. The wig was purchased on FashionOver, and dyed darker to match Nilin.
